“…1(d) and Table S1 (ESI†). 15,28–39 Our work has demonstrated high performance in power generation. Moreover, the normalized power density, which is used to evaluate the inherent power generation ability of the power density divided by Δ T 2 by excluding the dependency of Δ T , is obtained as 3.60 µW cm −2 K −2 .…”

“…To obtain self-healing properties, there are two main methods: exogenous self-healing methods, and the combination of healing agents based on microcapsules or microvessels ; and intrinsic self-healing methods, which rely on dynamic reversible covalent or non-covalent bonds to repair damaged areas (Figure 4a-c) [101]. Recently, Mao et al [102] reported a self-healing and recyclable wearable thermoelectric device (Figure 4d,e). The device is integrated from dynamic covalent thermoset polyimide, LM, and thermoelectric legs to develop a self-healing and recyclable flexible thermoelectric device (f-TEDs) that achieves a standardized power density of 1.54 µW•cm −2 •K −2 .…”

In recent years, the proliferation of wearable healthcare devices has marked a revolutionary shift in the personal health monitoring and management paradigm. These devices, ranging from fitness trackers to advanced biosensors, have not only made healthcare more accessible, but have also transformed the way individuals engage with their health data. By continuously monitoring health signs, from physical-based to biochemical-based such as heart rate and blood glucose levels, wearable technology offers insights into human health, enabling a proactive rather than a reactive approach to healthcare. This shift towards personalized health monitoring empowers individuals with the knowledge and tools to make informed decisions about their lifestyle and medical care, potentially leading to the earlier detection of health issues and more tailored treatment plans. This review presents the fabrication methods of flexible wearable healthcare devices and their applications in medical care. The potential challenges and future prospectives are also discussed.

“…Given the threat of global warming and growing energy consumption for personal thermal management, the development of intelligent temperature-regulating materials is urgently needed. 63,64 To this end, nanofibrous films with passive cooling capacity have been applied as cooling textiles without energy consumption. However, for most passive cooling textiles, the harvest of solar radiation has not been appreciated.…”

Fiber‐spinning chemistry (FSC) has emerged as a promising micro‐reaction platform due to its high‐specific surface area, efficient heat and mass transfer, and enhanced reaction rate. The FSC strategy employs spinning fibers as microreactors, lessening the emissions of volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and realizing the design of micro/nanoscale fibers and the synthesis of nanomaterials. In this review, we highlight the latest advancements in FSC in respect of preparation mechanisms and technical advantages. Various FSC strategies, including microfluidic spinning, electro‐microfluidic spinning (EMS), and microfluidic blow spinning (MBS) are emphasized. In particular, the regulation of microfluidic chips in the FSC process is introduced. Additionally, the application of the FSC strategy is summarized in the synthesis of fluorescent nanomaterials, nonweaving for multidimensional fibers, and all‐weather smart textiles. Finally, the advanced progress and future perspectives are discussed. Overall, this review will provide theoretical guidance for the design of well‐defined micro/nanoscale fibers based on the FSC platforms.
